What's Up Wednesday!

Let's see if I actually finish and post this on the appropriate day! :)

I can't believe it's the end of January! To be honest, I keep thinking that Thanksgiving and Christmas are coming soon. I'm a little confused on what time of year it is!

What I'm eating this week:

Well, Monday I had a frozen premade dinner from my Momma, Tuesday I got my FAVORITE Pizza ever on the way home from an event. Buck Creek Pizza, oh how I love thee! And Wednesday night Audra and Addie are coming over for Girls Nite and we are having Chicken Fajitas in the crock pot, and salads. Yum!!

What I'm reminiscing about:

I can barely spell that. Ha! I have been thinking about my birthday and remembering my Grams lately. She passed away two years ago the day after my birthday. Her birthday was the day before mine so we always celebrated together. Last year was the first without her and it was rough. This year, I am actually getting excited for my birthday! But I will still forever miss her this time of year.

What I'm loving:

I'm loving that it's the end of January and we have only had two snows. Three if you count the one that melted the same day. Both snows have only been a few inches and this snow hater really appreciates that!

What I've been up to:

Just teaching away over here! Combine that with having a Sinus Infection, I haven't been doing much more than that!

What I'm dreading:

Nothing at the moment. It's almost the weekend!!

What I'm working on:

I've been working hard on Crowdtap lately, as they upgraded their system and made it even easier to win giftcards. I'm super close to having enough to buy myself a fancy Porch/Patio Swing with a Canopy for my backyard. Totally excited about that!

What I'm Excited about:

The warm weather of Spring and sitting outside on said porch swing!

What I'm watching/reading:

I love nothing more than a good netflix/hulu binge. Since I'm single, live alone and work from home I am by myself a lot! Which I like, but sometimes you just need some voices in the background while you do things. I like to find a show that i can watch multiple seasons of, and watch episodes while i'm eating, or working on the computer ect. That being said right now I am working my way through 7'th Heaven. Yes, I know the scandal of the guy on it. I'm trying to ignore that and just enjoy a show i watched as a kid. A clean show!

What I'm listening to:

Right now it's just the heat running.

What I'm wearing:

I lost some layers, but today I wore leggings, a long camisole, a grey shirt, a light weight cream cardigan over that and topped it off with my cream, gray, pink scarf that Auds gave me for christmas. oh and my favorite slipper boots!

What I'm doing this weekend:

I'm really hoping that I will be sleeping in this weekend, and resting on the couch. As I said I've had a sinus infection, and haven't been getting much sleep. I'm exhausted and ready for some rest so I can kick this thing!

What I'm looking forward to next month:

My Birthday!! It's nice to be excited and looking forward to it again! Not to mention, my littlest Nephew turns 1!! crazy! As does my sweet Addie Jane! February is the best time to be born!

What else is new:


Not a whole lot. I really have nothing exciting to say!

January Recap

  Tap, Tap, Tap. Is this thing on? No, your eyes aren't deceiving you, I'm back blogging after almost a year of not posting anything. I did a month long Prayer and Fasting with my church and abstained from Social Media (more about that to come) and during that time I realized I really missed blogging! So here I am! Clearly I'm rusty at this because I managed to upload my pictures in the opposite order, and I'm too lazy to go through and move each and every one of them, so we are going to look back at the month of January from the end to the start! Let's go! The Last day of January was a busy one. Well for me at least, after spending most of 2022 on my parents couch, inbetween surgeries, doing anything is busy for me. I had a piano tuning for Old faithful, my new to me baby grand, so I hung out in my bedroom while my tuner was there, and worked on my laptop. Before that I had my 1 year Brow touch up with Marissa at Lafayette Microblading. It had actually been over a

This is My Love Story

In the predawn hours of New Years Day 2004 I was faced with a choice. After spending New Year's Eve at a local bar with a friend, I came home and through the events that transpired, I saw clearly a vision of my future. What would happen to me if I continued on the path I had been taking. I had a choice to make and within a split second I knew what my answer was going to be. I grew up in a Christian home. I was saved at an early age. When I was 13/14 on my Birthday Sunday, Pastor Martin preached a sermon about those of us who had been saved at an early age and knowing if your salvation was real or not. I spent the rest of the day and my party tormented because I could not remember what was in my heart when I was younger. That night I gave my life to Christ and knew without a shadow of a doubt that I was his, and going to Heaven. In the years that followed I continued to be very active in church. I played the Piano and was in charge of Sunday night offertory, I was t

Frugal Friday- (Some) Tips and Tricks on how I get the most bang for my buck

(Shoutout to Ollies for the perfect Picture for this blog post) Remember when it was January and I said I was going to blog more this year? Well, it's now December, and I haven't blogged since January so clearly that goal went out the window.  BUT! I am here blogging today to share something I'm passionate about! And that is SAVING MONEY! And spending the least amount of money on things. Listen, the lower the price of something is, the more I like it.  I was waxing poetic about this subject to a friend on Marco Polo this week and decided that I felt the need to share it with the world. So, world, (or the three people who read my blog) You're Welcome. Sidenote: These are just some of the ways I stretch my dollars and get money back from purchases. Some of these have referral codes that if you join from them I get some sort of a reward, and some don't have codes, or I'm just not cool enough to know where to find them. Use the code, don't use the code, but plea
